Ultimate dog dad near Central Park
Pet care experience
Long time UWS devoted dog dad of 14 years - from eldest corgs to the youngest terriers! Currently fully remote working/studying to become a Board Certified Behavior Therapist from my UWS (steps from Central Park!) apartment that I share with my GF and our 3 year old pup Nellie. 🥯🚕🐶 I’ve been a dog dad for 14 years - the corgi in the pictures is Jake. He passed away last month to cancer and I have loved and cared for him every step of the way. Because Jake had developing elder issues, I am experienced with older dog problems with ataxia, hip problems, and just needing to be carried after a while. We have a big soft spot for elder dogs and know the special love and care they deserve. During the pandemic, my gf and I rescued our 2nd dog Nellie! She’s really energetic and loves playing with other dogs, especially bigger ones. Nellie has dietary and separation anxiety issues, so we know what it’s like to follow specific strict rules with your dog. We love and have experience with young pups in training and would love to have them over. Personally I work in the behavioral therapy field and am close to being board certified so I am no stranger to using data and interventions to shape behavior with your pup. From experience, behavior change and training must be consistent so if that’s an option you would like to explore we can discuss that as well!
Reviews
Jeff was wonderful. We left our dog with him for 3 nights (her longest time away from us) and she was returned to us calm and happy. You can tell Jeff is a true lover of animals and he sent photos throughout the day to keep our minds at ease. Highly recommend!
Jeff and Emily is hands down the best dog sitter in town! From the moment I reached out, they were super responsive and accommodating to my pup's needs. The daily photo updates were a highlight of my day, and it was clear that my furry friend was having the time of their life. Plus, they totally gets the importance of doggo socialization – my pup made new furry BFFs during their stay! They were very attentive to my doggo's needs. If you're a fur parent like me and want someone who treats your dog like family, look no further than Jeff and Emily!
Jeff is so gentle and patient with our mini doxie who can be anxious and stubborn when walking. We would totally recommend him to anyone!
Jeff was able to come on such short notice to help out with taking Mattie for a walk when I wasn’t feeling well, which was super appreciated! She seems to have had a blast and was exhausted when she came back.
